SONGWRITER
Blues/Rock guitar player, singer, songwriter. Born in upstate New York! I have been involved with music, and playing music since I was very young, and I've been writing songs since 1962.
I Love the Blues and BluesRock of the late sixties, and early seventies, like John Mayall, and the Great BluesRock he was doing with Eric Clapton. Eric turned me on to a Bluesman named Buddy Guy. And then while living in San Francisco, I heard BB King's
"The Thrill is Gone."
I went to the record store to buy every Blues and BluesRock record I could find and afford.
And since then,I have recorded lots of my own Bluesrock and Blues tunes and now I have put some them on a NEW Triple CD.
You can hear some of them right here on soundclick.com!
When I go out to perform at a festival or a club, I am fortunate to be able to work with some of the Best BluesRock Players to be found anywhere. World class Blues Harp player,
"The Zombie without a Home" Mr Bruce Madden
for one.
In my career I have also been fortunate to have worked in concert many times. Opening shows for some of the worlds greatest and best known players and singers.

Mr. Bland came toward me in the hallway of The Fruenthal Theater after a Great Concert we did in Oct. 1997, and said to me,
"E, you really came to play" and then he shook my hand.
